— don't try to do it all at once.
Percival, ,also ,urges that any
exercise be followed not by
slumping into the nearest chair,
but by what he calls active rest:
five minutes'. rhythmic rocking, or
gently on-the-spot running "`to
help the body recover from its
effort."
Exercise should not be some-
thing separate from daily routine
-- but a part of it. For instance,
ride an exercycle while you're
watching television or listening, to
music. In other words,
superimpose exercise on
something else that interests you.
In* this connection, television sets
that work only when you pedal
furiously — like the ones in the
Ontario Science Centre -- might
be a boon to fitness if they ever
were to be marketed com-
mercially.
One fitness program that gives
the highest return per minute of
effort, according to Percival, is
stepping on, and off .a raised box.
Heart, circulation, and oxygen
supply are the key factors.
Perdival believes that health
clubs serve a useful purpose for
many people. But because many
have no medical supervision and
people can go at it too hard, they
can be dangerous.
Fitness activity is a form of
insurance, says Percival. And
being fit need not involve
suffering. You. will see the results
quite quickly, he says.

tastes better. All your faculties
are suddenly sharper."

who are already working in the
towns can now quit their jobs and
go to work for the plant. If those
other small-town plants have to
close, so what, we don't need
them anymore, let them locate
somewhere where the farmer is
still a yokel, We may have to pay
more for our feed because the
feedmill will have to pay high
wages too, but you can't win 'em
all. After all, we don't act any
different from the land grabbers
in the city who buy a piece of land
-and let it lie idle until such time
that the nearby town or city needs
'it for expansion. Why should we
worry, when hydro builds on the
best agricultural land because it's
cheaper'that way? After all, hydro
belongs to the people and if the
people don't care, Why should we.

The Majestic W.I. Agricultural
meeting, convened by Mrs.
James Smith and Mrs. Bruce
McCall, was held in the Brussels
public library on Wednesday
afternoon, May 13.at 2 p.m. Mrs.
Earl Cudmore, ' president wel-
comed the members and visitors
and conducted the opening
exercises. Mrs. Ruby Steiss,
assistant secretary, gave the
minutes of the February meeting,
financial report and read the
correspondence.
The annual meeting will be
held- in St. Ambrose Roman
Catholic Church where dinner will
be served at 12:30 o'clock on
April 10. Members are asked to
get their tickets by the first week
in April from either Mrs. E.
Cudmore or Miss Laura Lucas.
Conveners of standing commit-
tees are to have their reports
ready for that meeting. A
nominating committee consisting
of Mrs. Alma Watson, Mrs. Jane
de Vries and Mrs. Alberta Smith
was appointee.
Everyone was asked to attend a
food forum on "Poultry Please"
to be held in Clinton High School

Women's Institute week is to
be held from June 10th - 14th.

Monday evening, April 1st at
8:15.
Mrs. Leona Armstrong asked
the members for their help and
support with the annual cancer
fund drive which is taking place in
April.
The roll call was answered by
telling what flowers were carried
at your wedding. Some members
told a joke.
, Mrs. Cudmore introduced the
guest speaker, Rev. J.W.Seibert
of Stratford who gave an
interesting talk on flowers
especially dahlias, gladioli and
tuberous begonias. He illustrated
his talk with slides. The size of a
bulb has nothing to do with the
size of the flower a small
gladiolus bulb usually produces a
larger flower than a large bulb.
Mr. Seibert was thanked and
presented with a gift by Mrs.
Bruce McCall. The lucky winners
of a dahlia bulb and gladioli bulbs
'were Miss Mae. Skelton and Mrs.
Betty McCall respectively.
Mrs. de Vries gave the motto
"His garden will be fragrant who
has sown it with sweet thoughts".
Current events prepared by
Mrs. Marie McCutcheon were
given by Mrs. Wallace Bell,
among them being, -
1. The ' rise in oil prices will be
affecting the cost of fabrics such
as polyester, nylon and wool. 2.
"Do's and don'ts for
"streakers".
Lunch was served by Mrs. Earl
Cudmore, Mrs. Norm McLarty,
Mr s, Leona Connelly and Mrs.
Elsie Shaw.
